As a former resident of Toronto and someone who used the bike lanes on university and bloor occasionally, I loved knowing that it was a safe spot to ride.

Study after study says the best way to slow down speeding and protect pedestrians and cyclists is to narrow the car lanes to force drivers to drive more carefully.
